In November all the children in Third Class began preparing for our carol service. Teacher taught us lots of new carols and we also learned some of our favourite Christmas songs. We worked very hard learning the words and we had to practise every day in our own class.The week before the carol service we had three rehearsals with all the classes in the hall. It took a while to get us all arranged to the teachers' satisfaction but eventually they were all happy! Terry did a fantastic job decorating the hall with Christmas trees and lots of decorations so that we would all get into the Christmas spirit.
On Tuesday 13th December our parents, grandparents and minders all began to arrive from lunchtime.. At 12. 45pm we took our places wearing our Santa hats and our performance began . We sang Silent Night to start and boys and girls from each class told the story of the Nativity. We recited a lovely poem called "Jesus is Born" and read some prayers of the faithful too. Soon it was time to sing a selection of popular Christmas songs such as "Winter Wonderland". It was great to hear the audience joining in!
The following day we performed the carol service for the fifth and sixth classes and their teachers. Everybody was in agreement that it was a great success and we all really enjoyed ourselves.
Here you can listen to some of the songs from our carol service. We hope you enjoy them.
